Krugman's War for Supporting a Long Festering Populist Superficiality

It is suggested that, unlike the long practiced traditional superficial
approaches to human issues, like those pursued by Krugman among
many others, one should give serious consideration to the frequent fact
that individuals coming from the same family background, thus with
the same racial, ethnic, cultural, economic and social initial conditions,
often diverge immensely in their adult lives across ranges between
honest work and crime, extremist and moderate politics, or atheism and
religion, among others. Presently, no social, political or economics
science deals in the least with that issue.

Open Letter to P Krugman

It is suggested that psychological aspects of the behaviour of the
general population with respect to economics - advocated by
Krugman, following the economic crises of 2008 - should be extended to
economists as well, in order to avoid the excessive and mostly senseless
polarization of economists in opposing ideological camps, a
polarization still so dominant nowadays.
